Black Gold City, located in the middle of the Sinnoh region, has very rich coal resources and is also an important industrial town.

The east side is close to the foot of Dianyuan Mountain, so Ming Zheng can only go around to the north of the city and come down from the gentle slope.

The closer you get to the black gold market, the more you can smell a faint smell of sulfur.

Not much, but Shuttlecock Flower doesn't like it very much.

"Come back too."

Ming Zheng didn't force it, and only slowly entered the city with Gala Gala.

This time, Ming Zheng did not spend the night in the Elf Center, but chose a nearby five-star hotel.

After working hard in the field for so long, it is time to treat yourself and the elves.

In the room, Ming Zheng closed the curtains and carefully checked it again, and then the iron dumbbells and shuttlecock flowers were released again.

"I have something to do, you can play first, and then I'll take you out later."

Letting the three little ones explore in the room, Ming Zheng took out his laptop and boarded the internal platform of Team Rocket.

Black Gold City, as an important town in the Sinnoh region, was naturally assigned by Team Rocket to garrison the informants.

After Ming Zheng became a mobile intelligence officer, he was able to produce all the first-level intelligence inside.

And in the first-level intelligence, there is a lot of information that is urgently needed.

For example, Donggang, a gym trainer, the Black Gold Chamber of Commerce, the Black Gold Museum, the Black Gold Charcoal Pit, the underground black market, and so on......

As an intelligence officer, Ming Zheng also developed the habit of planning before acting. ‘

After learning more about the basic situation of the Black Gold City, Ming Zheng took back the iron dumbbells and shuttlecock flowers, and took Gala Gala to the contact station of Team Rocket first.

A jade antique shop.

After matching the code, Ming Zheng was quickly invited to the backstage.

"I've caught some elves, help me exchange them for points."

Ming Zheng got straight to the point and directly took out all the gains along the way.

"Please wait!"

The receptionist was obviously stunned when he saw the Poké Balls on the table, but quickly began to identify them on his own.

Half an hour later, Mingzheng's points stayed at 3210 points, which was compared to the points obtained by doing tasks, which was earning hard-earned money.

However, this involves less and is safer.

Then, Ming Zheng came to the elf center and handed over Gala Gala and Shuttlecock Flower to Miss Joy.

"I'm sorry for you!"

Miss Joy smiled, said nothing, and turned to get to work.

Ming Zheng waited silently in the rest area, listening to the trainers chatting around him.

Contrary to Mingzheng's expectations, the most frequent appearance in the chat was not the gym trainer Donggang.

It's the upcoming Black Gold Festival!

The so-called Black Gold Festival is a festival that has been passed down from ancient times in the Black Gold Market, and has gradually evolved into a festival.

In addition to various performances and various lantern festivals at night, the most famous is the unique sandstorm competition in Black Gold City.

The Sandstorm Tournament only allows the elves of the rock, ground and steel attributes to participate, and the venue is fixed for sandstorm weather, which is a great test for the elves and trainers.

Of course, there are corresponding prizes after winning, but they have not yet been announced.

Ming Zheng is interested, isn't this just right for Gala Gala to participate?

The ground-based gala has a strong restraining effect on both rock and steel, and it also happens to be a warm-up match for challenging the gym.

You must know that the current Donggang has not yet indulged in mining, leaving his son to go to Shuimai City alone.

As a veteran gym owner, Donggang's strength is very strong.

Even if he won't use all his strength to test Mingzheng, he won't give away the badge easily.

The Sandstorm Confrontation is a good opportunity to improve.

An hour later, the announcement informs Ming Zheng that he is going to retrieve the elf.

"Gala Gala and Shuttlecock are very healthy and well cultivated, continue to take good care of them!"

Miss Joy raised her little fist, and with a sweet smile almost hammered into Mingzheng's heart.

"I will, thank you."

Ming Zheng shifted his gaze and answered softly.

Miss Joy smiled secretly, who doesn't like a handsome boy who can take care of elves.

Getting back to business, after treating the two elves, Ming Zheng went to sign up for the Sandstorm Competition.

"The Black Gold Festival will start at the gymnasium at 7 o'clock in the morning three days later, so please don't sleep late."

The young lady at the registration window happily handed the number plate and handbook to Mingzheng.

"Well, no," Akimasa took with a smile.

"The details of the competition are in the brochure, I wish you and Gala Gala the best results!"

"Okay, thank you!"

"Quack!"

Ming Zheng couldn't help but find that although the air in Black Gold City was not very good, the young ladies were much more enthusiastic and cute than those in Nohara City.

"Almost, let's go back to the hotel for dinner!"

"Quack!"

One person and one pet returned in a good mood and soon came to the downstairs of the hotel.

On the way, it's a pity that Mingzheng is still there.

It's not the time for the iron dumbbell to come out yet, otherwise it's not bad to let it try.

was about to go in, but saw a person rushing from behind in a hurry, almost taking Ming Zheng away.

"I'm sorry, I'm in a hurry, I'm sorry!"

Ming Zheng staggered his body and took a closer look at him to know him.

"Lady?"

"Huh? Do you know me? Mrs. Scoop was stunned for a moment, but immediately said, "No, I'm going to be late!" ”

After saying that, he turned around and ran into the hotel, and disappeared after a while.

'I met him here, the world is so small'

After sighing in his heart, Ming Zheng also walked in curiously and found that there were already many people standing in the hotel lobby.

"Is King Kikuno also coming to participate in the Black Gold Festival?"

"Yes, yes, I heard that we are staying in this hotel, and everyone can wait to see if we can see her."

"Ahh Can you really see it? I love Kikuno so much! ”

"Who in this room doesn't like that?!"

“……”

Listening to the discussion around him, Ming Zheng figured out the situation, but he was also surprised that he was staying in the same hotel as the Heavenly King.

Ming Zheng looked at the front desk in front of him, which was already crowded, and it was obviously difficult to find a room.

Although he also wanted to meet the true face of the legendary Kikuno Heavenly King, he did not wait in the hall stupidly.

Swiped the card upstairs and entered the room.

Ming Zheng used his computer to recheck the information about the Black Gold Festival, and found that the festival was much more lively than he imagined.

And the difficulty of the sandstorm competition is far from being comparable to the kind of ring competition that the Galaxy Department Store has a big reward for.

Even, some elite trainers will come to participate.

The final prizes are also abundant, including high-quality items, evolution stones, and potions.

After reading these, Ming Zheng knew that Gala Gala was basically hopeless to win the championship, so it was up to him to see if he could get a good reward with a ranking.

'Or not...... In a different order, first challenge the gym trainer Donggang to warm up for the sandstorm confrontation? ’

Mingzheng couldn't help but think about it, and then he laughed.

"Grinding guns in battle, it's not fast, it's light, Gala Gala next we have to train a wave."

"Quack!"

Gala Gala didn't stop the action of maintaining the bone stick, just nodded slightly.

Well, wait until it's finished.
